Hi Andrey! Can you speak English? Thank you in advance.
AA: I live in England. So I have to communicate in English. Every day I try to memorize some new words and expressions. I also take lessons. I should work on my pronunciation. For example, Artyom, as some of my friends say, has already got a London accent. Julia spends a lot of time studying the language. She studied German at school and at the University, so she had to start from the very beginning here.

Andrey, hello from the Gunner! Tomorrow, September 11, my girlfriend flies back here, I haven’t seen her for 2 months and her birthday is on Sept. 14. I’ll be meeting her at the Vnukovo airport at the time of the game against Bolton. It’ll be a great present for her if you could write on your T-shirt "He is ready for everything for you, Nastia! " If you score, show it to the viewers! We are 23 years old and I believe in miracles. Of course, this is unrealistic, but I’ll be grateful to you for the rest of my life.
